Zusammenfassung

Die Hauptaufgaben einer Tumornachsorge umfassen sowohl die Diagnose des Tumorrezidivs und möglicher Spätkomplikationen der Tumortherapie als auch die Betreuung des Patienten bei psychologischen und sozialen Problemen. Während letzteres vornehmlich Zeit erfordert, kommen für die erstgenannten Aufgaben in der Regel teuere Untersuchungsmaßnahmen zum Einsatz. Ob ihr Einsatz in der Nachsorge des Nierenzellkarzinoms (NZK) sinnvoll ist, hängt von verschiedenen Parametern (z. B. Häufigkeit, Lokalisation oder Therapiefähigkeit des Rezidivs) ab. Die vorliegenden Daten sprechen für eine „schlanke“ Tumornachsorge bei Patienten mit NZK.

Abstract

Diagnosis of tumor recurrence and of therapy-related side effects as well as psychological support are the main goals of a surveillance program of cancer patients. While the latter may represent a time-consuming effort, most diagnostic procedures are expensive. Whether we can efficiently detect tumor recurrence in renal cell carcinoma depends on various parameters of the recurrent disease (e.g., frequency, localization, or therapeutic options). Available data lend support to “lean” follow-up strategies in patients with renal cell carcinoma.
